Not been on here in a few years so doubt there will be many who remember me from a while back! Thought I would share a few pics of how my fez is these days, just passed her 5th birthday too ;) The Fez The new DRL Headlight Units The obligatory engine bay shot They are mostly the main things, other than that its had speaker upgrades, red lights put in the front footwells, and LED strips wired for the rear footwells, the boot has a light upgrade so you can actually see in there at night, if you hadn't spotted its got red & black gel overlay badges as well as a K&N panel filter and a cone which comes out occasionally! As for the ariel question, I had a bee-sting anti-theft Richbrook ariel, which appeared to do its job as someones tried to steal it but failed, however they have completely ruined the Ariel pulling the threading off (as the picture below will show)... anyone have any ideas if this is fixable without having to get a whole new part? Thanks guys :) Nico.

thanks for all the tips people! unfortunately i been in work today again (made sure i parked in a different place this time!!!), so have not been able to get a picture... my front bumper needed a lil bit of work anyway (scratched from what i could only guess as someone walking past) so it would need fully doing, not just the part(s) damaged, i know someone who does paintwork repairs for a local jag garage, so i may ask him on his opinion, and another who works at a body shop. only issue with a new bumper is the obvious cost though!

anyone cared to think they may have just any plates on them? doubt ford would have sent out a 'fake' st to the biggest car show in the world Edit: an un-released car wouldn't be registered anyway would it

Well after a nice shift at work ending at half 10, come out to my car and find the front bumper is cracked, a line going about 5 inches down from the corner point of the headlamp, and the part where it curves under at the bottom, there is a similar sized gap where the piece has all together fell off.... unfortunately there no camera's or anything to see how this was done... whats my best bet now??? new bumper or could this possibly be fixed at a good body works shop?? everything else is fine from what i can so far see, will try get a picture in better light

depends when the noise is, if its on start up then its perfectly normal as far as i am aware... and as for the service, i had my oil topped up on my first one as it was border-line low, not quite an oil change but they said it was needed... so best bet is just continue asking
